But you said "OB4CL & Illmatic are considered as some of the greatest hip hop albums, all generations and regions included. No surprise they giot more votes
You could've mentionned better examples really.
Goodie Mob - Soul Food
Common - Resurrection
Spice 1 - 187 He Wrote
UGK - Ridin' Dirty
Geto Boys - We can't be Stopped
These albums weren't anymore commercially performant than Illmatic/OB4CL but they've been regarded as classics. You could also add 8Ball & MJG - Comin' Out Hard & The Pharcyde - Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde as well." I put the albums you personally mentioned alongside ob4cl and illmatic to show the bias and my point has been proven. Look at the numbers for the albums YOU SUGGESTED I SHOULD USE. Only on the east can you be moderately successful,yet called a classic. My point is etched in stone,just admit it

Do you realize how much rap is sampled off of 70s and 80s beats.

What does that mean? His point was that nikkas thought what THEY were doing,was bigger than it actually was AND minimized others,simply cause THEY were doing it.Yet Easy Moe Bee produced Me Against the World

Easy Moe Bee is a producer from Brooklyn, with east coast beats. So Tupac should thank an east coast producer for a classic album
